Old Bench Revamp!
So I have been looking for a piece for our foyer and while shopping around I stumbled upon this bench. Now my thought when I saw this was how hideous, it looks like something that belongs in Miami subs (for those of you that are not familiar with MS, just think really tacky Floridan.
We are super excited this year, we get to celebrate Christmas with both of our families in our new home, that's 15 family members all under one roof (you know like a "Home Alone" setup.) So much to do, so little time, here I am already thinking about all the little details and its only October! I have a million different ideas for recipes and decorating all going through my head. My sister-in-law and I are going to be planning this together!
Purchased this wood sign at Joann's a few years ago, it has been sitting half painted for about 4 years. I have finally completed it!
Added some red/green acrylic paint, then topped it off with some sparkly paint to give the piece a more "Christmas feel"
Two of our friends recently bought new houses! Came up with this crafty idea to add a personal touch. Made with my scrapbooking materials.
I made my first dress! It was super easy, the material came as is so the elastic top was already sewn together. All I did was sew the hem and side and then I had to add two slits in the dress so that I could actually walk comfortably in it. I'm looking forward to lounging in it when we go on vacation.
Halloween Movie Marathon
Its officially one month until Halloween!! The house is decorated, Halloween nail projects in place, Halloween Horror Nights booked and already the hubby and I have started watching some horrifying movies, let us know of any good movie suggestions, we love the old classics! We have ALOT more in queue and will update soon with ratings.

Beer Caps Canvas
Total cost of Project: Under $5.00 (not including beer caps)
If you have a wide variety of beer caps and are not sure what to do with them, why not make it into art? My Husband and I enjoy drinking beer, over the years we have become more or less "beer snobs" we enjoy drinking the crafty beers. After trying to figure out what to do with them, I thought I wonder how they would look on a small canvas. Since my husband loves beer I thought the beer caps art would be an awesome addition to his office.
DIY Wedding decor
Table Numbers (Pictures in Frames)
This idea was so much fun and a little difficult, trying to pick 11 pictures from 10 years of us being together. I printed all the photos in black and white and then I had my husband use his Photoshop skills on the computer. He added the numbers. We chose orange because that was one of our main colors for the wedding. Then I purchased 11 frames from a local craft store. We had some of our guests take home them as well.
The final product at our wedding:
